WATCH: Stewards intervene after confrontation between Bray manager Pat Devlin and Seagulls fans

The STEWARDS were urged to intervene today after a disappointing away game for the Wicklow club between part of the Bray Wanderers support and team manager Pat Devlin.

ray played a 1-1 draw with Wexford, leaving Wanderers third from bottom. After the tie, an eighth straight game without a win for Bray, part of the away support prompted Devlin’s departure as manager and the veteran manager closed in on the fans but was led away by stewards. At one point, an object was thrown in Devlin’s direction.

Devlin (69) is the longest-serving manager in the club’s history, having been at the helm when Bray joined the League of Ireland in 1985. He left Bray after a change of ownership in 2013 and has had stints at UCD and Cabinteely, but the recent merger between Cabinteely and Bray saw Devlin back as manager of a unified club.

Wanderers were without points after their first three games of the season, including a 6-0 opening day loss to Cork City. Form improved with victories over Longford Town and Cobh Ramblers but fans are unhappy with a return of just two points from their last four games.
